3 Settings on a non 3 phone

I'm thinking of getting a Nokia N73 on a virgin clearance deal.
I am told that the phone is network unlocked and I want to use my 3 contract
sim in it.
Will 3 send me all the settings I need for msn, planet 3 etc..., if not
where can I get all the settings from and is there anything else I need to
access all of 3 services ?

THANKS

Thanks for the above guys,
Can anyone confirm that I will still be able to : make video calls, browse
the internet and send pic messages, I'm not bothered about messenger or
downloading 3 content i.e.. games, videos ringtones etc...
